Abstract

The university library acquisition programme is seriously underfunded. Academic librarians, publishers and all those involved in education agree that drastic action needs to be taken to improve the current situation. But there are many conflicting views on how this can best be achieved. Claire Wardell of the Council of Academic and Professional Publishers, gives a survey of the situation and an insight into what the statistics say.
